What was your first overclock?

Pitspawn · 18 Dec 2006 at 10:28

AMD SlotA 650Mhz @ 750Mhz, something funny is i found the cooler to be better when it was placed upside down as it resulted in lower temps lol.

Athlon XP 2500+ Barton, clocked to 2.2Ghz (XP 3200+ Speed). Pure FSB Overclock, could have gone further if I had done more research into the overclock, and had realised I could have put the memory on a divider as this was limiting the overclock.

Not only that, could have gone further if I had of realised the board had Vcore adjustment. Ahh, the hindsight of it all

AMD K6 300Mhz to 350Mhz using jumper settings ><

Pentium II 350Mhz 100FSB -> 450Mhz was really pleased at the time. :rolleyes:

K6-2 iirc
forget what clocks I got, but it didn't like it much! mmmmmmmm jumpers!

Cyrix 166

AMD K6-2 400mhz @ 450mhz with a slight volt increase to get it into Windows

First "proper" overclock is the one in my sig

First OC was my previous cpu - Athlon 3200 to 2.5ghz with the help of some folk on this forum - Cheers guys!

CBP · 18 Dec 2006 at 13:38

my current opteron 170 to 2.5ghz

Can't get it to go above without lots of volts and lots of heat. Got a bad stepping

Zefan · 18 Dec 2006 at 13:42

Mobile 2400+ - 2.4ghz (3200 speeds). A very popular one that was.

DanF · 18 Dec 2006 at 13:45

Cyrix cpu that ran at 166mhz > 183mhz.

Lasted 2 weeks before ditching it for a 200mmx > 266mhz. Loved that cpu.

same here ah the days...........

marc2003 · 18 Dec 2006 at 16:46

xp2500@xp3200. just upped the fsb from 166 to 200, stock volts. it doesn't get much easier than that.

Captain Fizz · 18 Dec 2006 at 16:54

1400 T-Bird -> 1580 MHz IIRC.
Don't think I could get the 1600 MHz out of it without the temps sky-rocketing.

EDIT - Peeps are putting in other clocks too...
XP1600 (Pali) @ 1600Mhz (Good air cooling)
XP2100 (T-Bred B) @ between 1.8~2GHz - Can't remember, but near the top of what peeps were getting
XP2500M @ 2.4Ghz (AIR!)
Current chip in sig.

FreeStream · 18 Dec 2006 at 16:56

XP-M 2500+ AYQHA stepping.

217x12 2.6ghz on air, 1.9V under a SP-90 All Copper on a NF7-S.

What a beast!

malccy · 18 Dec 2006 at 17:15

AMD 2800+ - can't remember what I clocked it to but remember it was a pretty great chip.

Sniper123 · 18 Dec 2006 at 17:51

AMD 3500+ venice @ 2.4
I could have got more but my bio's didn't give me any overclocking feature's

So i couldn't set my memory to 166 :mad:

st4g · 18 Dec 2006 at 18:31

A64 3700 @ 2.8 :cool:

dante6491 · 18 Dec 2006 at 19:04

duron 1.1 -> 1.3ghz
then
amd athlon 2.2 -> 2.75
